Ability to Advance or Delay the schedule
For all its merits, I think there is a feature missing from the Wiser software that would massively improve its usability. Which is to have the ability to advance or delay the schedule for all rooms.
Examples:
- - I’m up earlier than usual in the morning and need the various morning rooms to come on earlier than usual, without having to manually go into each room setting and override.
- - I’m going to be late home from work and need to delay the time that the various evening rooms come up to heat.
- - I’m getting home early...
- - I’m staying up later in the evening than usual and need to delay when the overnight settings kick in.
- - I’m going to bed early...
etc. etc. You get the picture. All very common use cases.
I find it very tedious to have to go into the app and override several rooms in these situations. With the more basic central smart thermostats, this is easily achieved by just raising or lowering the central thermostat temperature. Individual room schedules are obviously a much better solution overall, but they do make it harder to override the schedule. Yes, we can create Moments to achieve the same thing, but you would need so many Moments to cover all of the various eventualities and would need to keep these in sync with any changes to the scheduled temperatures.
I have a software background, so I feel this should be relatively straightforward to implement. So I’m looking for some thumbs up for this suggestion, so that we can put it to Schneider as a proposed enhancement if it gets enough support.

I believe the current thought process is that it's not very "Green" to advance all when you would then potentially be heating rooms that aren't being used. I would like to have the option though. I have two moments set up one to boost downstairs and one to boost upstairs, It's not perfect but it does work for me.

Just to clarify, the idea would be to modify the effective time for the system, i.e. the effective time = the actual time plus or minus any advance or delay requested. So, if just the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen are due to come on at 7, but you are up early at 6, you would advance the schedule by an hour, so that the effective system time would be 6 and just those radiators would then come on. You would then cancel the override when required.
